What obvious damage to the environment do you believe will be revealed?

Unfortunately, on a local scale the damage is very evident. For example, check out what has happened at Kilimanjaro in the attached image. 85% gone and 26% of what was there in 2000 is now also gone. See more at:

Now I wonder what will happen when flow rates in the Ganges drop and can you even contemplate what will happen as the monsoon fails more regularly... 1 billion staving, thirsty boat people....
I live not far from Mount Wellington in Tassie. People still alive tell me it used to be impossible to get to the top during Winter because the snow was many metres thick. Open road 99% of the time now. The ocean currents around Tassie are warmer and northern species are invading. Evidence is absolutely everywhere.
